dcq:

on urban terrain, i strive to maintain

stress and strain with a whole heap of pain

alot of *****ing games that i cant seem to win

i'm living in the land of sin

i close my eyes and i count to ten thousand

shit is still *****ed up down at public housing

turn in the tv just to see my man on the news

no job but he had to pay a hundred dollar shoes

so i get my head ready cuz i know where i'm at

i got good sense and now i need thousand gats

cuz timess in america is all out of order

u gotta pay just to get good drinking water

they going bucknuts and i ain't trying to hear it

the ??? is hear

i stay cool in the babylon swelter

bout to build a house with a *****ing bomb shelter

cuz it's a lot of smaller faces out here and i don't trust em

muther*****ers make a wrong move and imma bust em

i'm sleeping on the floor with my nines by the door

war ain't fair it's war

frontline, muther*****a

mos(talking):

u can never underestimate your enemy.

u gotta realize there's people who wake up 6 am in the morning to jog

running for they life cuz they don't underestimate your enemy.

ces:

shit in here's getting kinda warm

muther*****as' didn't know that i had this form

i'm spitting buckshots and u could all get dropped

muther*****a best i'm taking all head shot

it's the great beat breaker brakalak jacker

dominant g, son, it gets no blacker

u scared ***** asses with the style u lack

i'm having reoccurring dreams of blowing out your back

so take that and that and that and that

i'm as hard as it gets u can't sit where i sat

role with an ill crew pack a big ?? juel

i ain't the ***** steady trying to get a new hair doo(ooooo)

look u ain't gotta like it cuz shit is real

imma say it feel the truth must be revealed

your eyes wide open and u still can't see

steady smoking blunts talking bout 'i'm free'

spend all your time sleeping with the enemy

doing dumb shit that u seen on the tv

can't get caught up in the hocus pocus

times is so hopeless i gotta keep focus

and imma do whatever it takes

cuz shit ain't easy but that's the breaks

times is too wil' to smile

i'm ready to get it on, son, you know my style

can't clam cuz i'm here for mine

from now to 99, frontline mother*****a!

mos(talking):

theres no room for fear. we're giving these heads the respect and credit that

they don't deserve.

you know what i'm saying? that's why they don't respect us.

when we start to realize who we are, then we can clearly see who they are.

mos(rapping):

originallity is now a ??yummy sound bite??

everything sound ??type of trife but don't sound right??

treading over urban terrrain is a great source of pain

but that's the path i chose so i can't complain

if i get honory pardon me gems and jets

i'm on a mission in a very *****ing literal sense

if heads don't understand theres no consequence

cuz now everyones worthy to hold my confidence

in a world so ?? i stand frontline

could capture this motion and mad explosion

the vision decension and mass attention

strifiling congestion and no progression

i try to keep on looking at the prize

but i'm stready wiping blood out my eyes

mr charlie could u ??pop some record mother??

and we *****ing turn around and shoot each other

run for cover well that ain't a *****ing option

i'm coming thru head first i ain't stopping

suckas wont speak cuz i speak on these topics

but don't sleep i'm keeping heat like the tropics

a full clip and my hand on my dick

i'm like a mother*****ing elephent i dont forget shit

from megaevers down to ??

black bodies swinging from trees outlining american hills

talk all that racism shit if u want to

but white man i don't trust u and i will bust you

even if u try to act trife

it's the M O S all loked out for life

a hundred years ago you brought the rah rah

now it's recycle and kumbaya

and i ain't going out like a punk

you say ?? you could call it what you want

no sipping i gotta stay aware

i'm too prepared to be stepping out scared

brothers eyes are watching can't go out like a sucka

mos def is sending another frontline, mother*****as

mos(talking:

vctory is your only choice. theres no other alternative for victory.

and the only way to vbe victorious is to understand your enemey.

you gotta understand they're fighting to survive and we're fighting to live.

they're fightng for something totally different and the differences are great.

and we have to realize tat theyre times is up.

and if they're desperate then the desperate enemy should not be hard pressed

because has nothing to lose.

he will take him to hell with him.

so you either fight to win or fight to die.

fight to win or fight to die.
